A NEW team of dedicated cruise specialists
has been launched by the Jetset Travelworld
Group and will enable customers to search for
their nearest local expert in the holiday style.
The division is centered around a new online
portal – www.thecruiseteam.com.au – which
will enable consumers to search for the most
appropriate voyage to suit their needs from a
preferred ship or cruise company, destinations,
regions and last-minute special offers.
More than 500 agents and 150 agencies in
the Jetset network will be involved, meaning
agents can be found at Jetset, Travelworld,
Harvey World Travel and Travelscene outlets,
as well as affiliate agencies.
Further, all member agencies of The Cruise
Team will be accredited with the Cruise Lines
International Association (CLIA) and will
benefit from the buying power and marketing
prowess of the global representative group.
The Cruise Team general manager Alastair
Fernie said the establishment of the team was
in response to consistently strong demand
from customers for cruising product.
“We want to provide travellers from across
the country with a one-stop cruise shop for
hassle-free planning and booking” Fernie said.
“Our experts have collectively spent a total of
over 5,000 nights at sea on 92 different ships,
visiting every continent of the world”.
Cruise Team agents can complete all aspects
of a holiday incorporating a cruise, including
flights, hotels, pre- and post-cruise touring
options, transfers, insurance, foreign exchange,
visa arrangements and more.
“As cruise experts, members of The Cruise
Team are committed to connecting travellers
with their perfect cruise holiday,” Fernie said.
To celebrate the launch, an exclusive offer
from Royal Caribbean Cruises is now on sale,
with cabins on an 18-night New Zealand cruise
priced from $1,799pp – a saving of up to $500.
